Description

Absorbent article
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of absorbent article.
Background technology
Absorbent article is that people know already as hygienic articles.For example they are used as diaper, incontinent patients is used sanitary pad with liner or women.Above-mentioned these absorbefacient articles for use all are designs like this: they can hold and accumulate liquid slop, as urine, menstrual fluid or blood.It for example is liquid in order to be absorbed in before the menstruation, to be excreted after intermenstrual period and the menstruation that the women uses sanitary belt.The sanitary belt that the women uses is to be placed on external (external), and the difference of the tampon of using with the women is that tampon is to be placed on intravaginal, so they can be referred to as " interior usefulness " goods.
Often perceive when using known these absorbent articles and following shortcoming: after the outer surface of human body is receiving a kind of liquid the position of getting wet is just arranged, this makes its carrier that a kind of sticky feeling be arranged.The investigation of doing in this respect shows: use approximately 5% the time when the theoretical liquid absorption capacity of sanitary belt, for example traditional women's sanitary belt just can return wet.In addition, liquid often stays tangible residue on the surface of employed absorbent article in the body that is excreted, and this point can mislead the number of times of the replacing of needs with liquid absorption capacity that the user of these articles for use compares and replace absorbent article more.
Summary of the invention
Task of the present invention provides a kind of like this absorbent article, when using it, the liquid that can make full use of it accumulates the absorbed ability, and stays the use vestige that can obviously find out as few as possible on the medial beyond at it after using the long period.
The technical solution of above-mentioned task is a kind of absorbent article, has following structure: have one at health dorsad when the absorbent article, the lower floor of liquid impermeable, there is a master above the lower floor that is arranged in described liquid impermeable to accumulate layer, have one be arranged in described master accumulate the layer above the auxiliary layer that accumulates, there is one to be arranged in the described auxiliary layer of compensation that accumulates above the layer, a cover layer that is arranged in above the described layer of compensation is arranged, it has a centre bore, wherein, described cover layer is made up of a kind of mixture of being made up of cellulose and olefin polymerization, and this mixture contains the olefin polymerization of 50 weight % at least, and the upper strata of a medial liquid permeable when using absorbent article is arranged.
The absorbent article that the present invention proposes has following formation: an impermeable layer of liquid is arranged beyond its health dorsad when using this absorbent article.On the layer of this permeation liquid, arranged a master to accumulate layer.Connect an auxiliary layer that accumulates up on it again.Be provided with a layer of compensation on the layer in this auxiliary accumulating, and a cover layer is arranged on this layer of compensation, this cover layer has a centre bore.In this, cover layer comprises a kind of mixture of being made up of cellulose and olefin polymerization, and olefin polymerization accounts for 50 weight % at least in this mixture.
At last, absorbent article according to the present invention also has the upper strata of a medial liquid permeable when using this absorbent article.Fact proved, if the auxiliary layer position that has a compacting at least of accumulating then is very favourable.In absorbent article according to the present invention, can realize particularly advantageous accumulating, if having the longitudinal extension of the position of a compacting at least along these articles for use.In this case, extend towards the auxiliary layer that accumulates in the drop shadow spread of cover layer centre bore at least at that compacting position along the longitudinal extension of articles for use at least.If particularly advantageous result then can be obtained in the auxiliary layer position that at least five compactings are arranged of accumulating.Be used as the auxiliary material that accumulates layer, for example cellulose is very suitable.For example can accumulate in auxiliary local compacting of accumulating on the layer and to extrude groove in the layer and realized at this.The material of being placed below the groove that is extruded that accumulates obtains compression at this moment, and meanwhile, these grooves are for being helpful accumulate the liquid distribution of being adjusted in other words on the layer in absorbent article.
Cover layer with centre bore is made with a kind of composite material by cellulosic material and olefin polymerization material.Corresponding composite material contains the olefin polymerization of 50 weight % at least.If the shared part of olefin polymerization reaches 50-80 weight %, particularly 60 weight % then can obtain good effect.Cover layer also can so be made of two-layer, to be placed on second carrier layer making of olefin polymerization by the ground floor that a kind of composite material of making of cellulose and olefin polymerization constitutes exactly, in this, medial impenetrable liquid layer linked to each other when above-mentioned ground floor used absorbent article together, and second carrier layer links to each other with layer of compensation.The olefin polymerization that preferably comes out is polyethylene, polypropylene and polyethylene and polyacrylic mixture.In addition, cover layer can contain a kind of pigment, as titanium dioxide.The most handy a kind of non-woven fabric material of the material that layer of compensation is used is made.Non-woven fabric material can contain olefin polymerization and/or bicomponent fibers.Layer of compensation also can be at coating layer of surface activating substance on the surface of accumulating layer, and this activating substance for example can contain silicone.Aforesaid master accumulate layer for example can by a kind of do not have that crape folding is handled, form through air dried material (UCTAD), a kind of thin cotton or a kind of polyene.The main layer that accumulates is preferably arranged like this, makes that its edge is so folding, so that they overlap mutually.
Cover layer is made of two layers, and promptly ground floor uses a kind of mixture of being made up of cellulose and olefin polymerization to make, and is arranged on second carrier layer making with olefin polymerization; First layer of using a kind of mixture of being made up of cellulose and olefin polymerization to make links to each other with layer of compensation, second carrier layer then with layer the linking to each other of medial when using this absorbent article, liquid permeable.
Be but that liquid-tight layer or all available a kind of olefin polymerization of layer such as polyethylene, polypropylene or their a kind of mixture of transflective liquid are made.For absorbent article is fixed on the dress, on liquid-tight layer, preferably add an adhesive and/or adhesion layer at least.In addition, according to absorbent article of the present invention the fin of configuration from the side can be arranged also.Can preferentially be used as hygienic articles according to absorbent article of the present invention, be particularly useful as women's sanitary belt or women and use sanitary pads.
A kind of preferred no crape folding handle through air dried material (UCTAD), also can be used as the main layer that accumulates as it, at least contain 10 weight % high-efficiency fiber cellulose fibers (superior returns paper pulp fiber), with regard to dry matter, in these fibrous materials, add a certain amount of moisture retardant, so as to playing such effect, make wet tensile (strength) reach about 0.1 at least to the ratio of dry tensile strength.Cellulose fibre contains many lignins efficiently, and the wet elasticity that this fiber has may be given the credit to this lignin.The resin-bonded fiber with wet elasticity that forms by moisture retardant is solidified into a kind of laminated structure that accords with ribbon structure, realizes on this band dry (parching through-drying).In dry run, to be hardened by the bonding that moisture retardant forms, thereby can be formed the moisture-resisting bonding, this point makes that again the relevant band that is in the hygrometric state has elastomeric character.Why band keeps above-mentioned character, be because adopt a kind of do not have that the crape folding handles through air dried material the time, can not destroy agglutinating step or other step of crimping again.Therefore, what no crape folding was handled is very suitable for carrying and accumulating liquid through air dried material, even its reason is that it also is stable that this material is in hygrometric state.Some advantages of the absorbent article that will propose the present invention are done more detailed description below.
Topmost that one deck is medial, but transflective liquid, for example can make with spunbond polypropylene.If the upper caldding layer of this transflective liquid is mixed with suitable pigment such as titanium dioxide, then it can stop the liquid that accumulates in the absorbent article to see through to a certain extent.Above-mentioned medial that one deck of going up most also can be a kind of supatex fabric or thin-film material, and the heart is provided with a perforate therein.
The layer darker as the next one is cover layer, is easier to penetrate into each layer under it in order to make the liquid that comes out from body discharges, and it has a centre bore.This centre bore for example can be that punching press is come out, and has a kind of oval-shaped or a kind of Os Canitis shape profile.Cover layer also can be mixed with pigment, and this point can reach such effect again, is not having sharp trace on the absorbent article surface during at the liquid that is infiltrated exactly.Tectal another function is to prevent that the liquid that infiltrates from turning back on the surface, thereby the wet again phenomenon of unlikely appearance keeps dry the health of carrier.Cover layer is made with a kind of synthetic material, can achieve the above object.A kind of appropriate synthetic materials for example is a kind of mixture of polypropylene-cellulosic material, and wherein polypropylene content is greater than 50 weight %.Fact proved, polypropylene content be 50-80 weight % particularly 60 weight % be particularly advantageous.Synthetic material is to obtain like this, is exactly with the cellulose fibrillation, and produces the molten polypropylene that blows.Cellulose and polypropylene fibre with fibrillation mixes and is placed on running being with then, thereby can obtain desired polypropylene-cellulose mixtures.By the formation of this synthetic material, promptly by the cellulose part in this material, above-mentioned cover layer sucks from top next liquid, and this liquid is drained downwards.It is important that this point seems especially in the following cases, for example places when wrong when sanitary belt, and liquid directly flows in the sanitary belt through thin film without hole that institute's punching press is come out.In contrast, be higher than 50% polypropylene in the synthetic material and partly play such effect, promptly cover layer not resorb from down in case penetrate into liquid the sanitary belt.Therefore synthetic material impels the moisture regain matter of absorbent article to obtain significantly to improve, and in this, can also prevent under the corresponding pigment condition that the liquid that is sucked from revealing (so-called cover dirty effect) adding.
Moisture regain matter according to absorbent article of the present invention also can further be improved, if cover layer is two-layer or trilaminar words.For this reason, medial last layer can be the synthetic material of describing just now, i.e. polypropylene and cellulosic mixture.This synthetic material preferably is placed on another layer promptly by on the polymeric alkene layer that for example polypropylene is done.Three-decker also is feasible, exactly between two layers that constitute by polymeric alkene as sandwich style add a synthetic material layer.Polypropylene can be made through a kind of spunbond method, thereby obtains a kind of structure of supatex fabric formula.The hydrophobicity role of olefin polymerization is, in case come up in the surface that can prevent the liquid that is present in the absorber to turn back to absorbent article effectively.
The most handy a kind of non-woven fabric material of layer of compensation is made.This non-woven fabric can contain olefin polymerization and/or bicomponent fibers.If absorbent article relates to a kind of diaper, so above-mentioned layer of compensation also has the distribution function to the existing function of accumulating that is sucked, particularly it as the centre accumulate the layer all the more so.If absorbent article relates to a kind of women's sanitary belt, then layer of compensation does not accumulate function.The effect of the layer of compensation on women's sanitary belt is that at first still the liquid that keeps infiltrating does not reveal.Except non-woven fabric material can be used for layer of compensation, also can use the band of combing.The special layer of compensation of effectively handling with a kind of surface-active material.Specially suitable surface-active material is the surfactant that contains silicone.Surfactant is carried in the downside of layer of compensation, promptly is that layer of compensation is attached to that side on the absorber (the auxiliary layer that accumulates).Consequent capillarity can stop back drenched overcompensation layer effectively.
On absorbent article, absorber has a kind of special function.It not only plays the effect of accumulating at this, and plays the effect of the liquid that dispersion infiltrates, and in this, accumulates body and also only plays the effect that secondary accumulates body, also will more explain detailedly as following.The liquid distribution function of absorber can be supported by a kind of specific impression.In this, along vertically seeing of absorbent item, absorber density obtains local the raising.For example can impress out strain line or ditch river in Shangdong Province to reach the purpose of compacting.At least on the position that is in below the tectal centre bore, above-mentioned impression be arranged.This impression even can also expand each petiolarea of absorber to.A kind of preferred absorber comprises five compacted region of longitudinally arranging.The effect of compacting is: reduce the ability of accumulating of this place's absorber, the liquid dispersion that makes infiltration and is discharged into following master with it and accumulates on the layer in each groove.In addition, the compacting by at the middle part of absorber can reduce its thickness, thereby reach following purpose, and promptly the edge of absorbent item is thicker than its middle part.Because the middle part is recessed, thereby increased for example a kind of comfort sense that carries of women's sanitary belt.So, when absorber is being loaded with liquid because the middle part is recessed, so sanitary belt just reduced with the human body contact of the skin of carrier, thereby improved the drying property sensation on the body surface.Being especially suitable for use as absorber or assisting the material that accumulates layer is cellulose.
The main layer that accumulates directly is arranged on the liquid impermeable layer (briefs-protecting thin film).This accumulates the most handy a kind of the making through air dried material, a kind of thin cotton or a kind of molten polypropylene that blows of crape folding processing of not having of layer.Main effect of accumulating layer is except being used for accumulating the liquid, and the liquid distribution that also is used for infiltrating is in the end regions of absorber.If the main layer that accumulates is narrower than at its end regions in the central region of absorbent article, more help liquid dispersion to end regions.For example, if the main layer that accumulates is made with thin cotton, then it can be received into two milliliters big liquid.Through repeatedly investigating proof: before changing, exhausted whole woman months are through having the liquid that carries over half all not above two milliliters.This situation shows: from the used woman month of major part through bringing, whole absorbed liquid all be absorbed in by the briefs-protecting thin film in health layer farthest.Obviously, so both suppressed most effectively to return wet phenomenon, and made absorbed liquid in fact can on medial that side of women's sanitary belt, not reveal out again.If the liquid of carrying surpasses 2 milliliters, just the then main layer that accumulates can upwards be discharged into the excess liq that infiltrates auxiliary accumulating in the layer, thereby a kind of so-called " pouring into effect from bottom to top " appears, this phenomenon is just arranged when having only amount of liquid to surpass 2 milliliters certainly.
The main layer that accumulates also can be made with band ripple or the band pleat with a kind of, and this ripple helps this and accumulates layer to the distribution of liquid function.Ripple on the band is to arrange like this, makes liquid can longitudinally be directed into the two ends of absorbent article.At this moment, ripple is along extending with the perpendicular direction of absorbent article, thereby according to vertically forming feed channel.

The specific embodiment
Fig. 1 represents the top view of a kind of absorbent article 10 that the present invention proposes.Has left out on each layer segment ground that is the absorbent article 10 that proposes of the present invention in the scope of the bottom of Fig. 1, so that be positioned at following layer as can be seen.The basecoat of articles for use 10 is that the layer by a liquid impermeable 12 constitutes, and represents it with a kind of rectangular patterns.A kind of polypropylene film of layer 12 usefulness of liquid impermeable is done.The layer 12 of liquid impermeable is as so-called briefs-protecting film, and it can stop the liquid that penetrates in the absorbent article and be trapped in the there to run out from absorbent article downwards.His (she) underwear thereby the wearer that prevents absorbent article is made dirty.
Placing the main layer 14 that accumulates on the layer 12 of liquid impermeable, it is made with a kind of thin cotton.Constitute the main longitudinal edge that accumulates the band of layer 14 and fold into like this, make them under band, overlap mutually, find out as more clearly from Fig. 3.The main layer that accumulates can absorb and accumulate about 2 milliliters of liquid.In addition, the main layer 14 that accumulates also has such effect, and the front and back end region 16,18 of absorbent article is arrived in the liquid dispersion that will penetrate into the centre of absorbent article 10 exactly.
One deck under it is made of the auxiliary layer 20 that accumulates, and makes of a kind of cellulose layer.On this cellulose layer, extrude groove 22,24,26,28 and 30.Come the auxiliary liquid that accumulates above the layer 20 is preferably continued to be transported to absorbent article 10 by groove 20,24,26,28 and 30 front and back petiolarea, and it is drained into main accumulating in the layer downwards.Because being pressed into of groove 20,24,26,28,30, the auxiliary layer 20 that accumulates is compacted partly, thereby auxiliary absorbability of accumulating layer 20 is reduced partly, and then makes the easier master who is discharged in its lower section of liquid who infiltrates accumulate on the layer 14.So just can guarantee: accumulate before layer 20 is full of the liquid that is infiltrated auxiliary, the main layer 14 that accumulates promptly may be inhaled full liquid.Have only when main accumulate layer 14 accumulate capacity limitation when reaching, the auxiliary layer 20 that accumulates that this layer just is discharged to liquid in the above again gets on, thereby obtains so-called " pouring into effect from bottom to top ".
On the layer 20 is layer of compensation 32 in auxiliary accumulating.Layer of compensation 32 is to use a kind of supatex fabric of being made by spunbond polypropylene to make.Its effect at first is to make liquid infiltrate absorbent article fast, and stops and to return wet phenomenon and take place, and stops the liquid that infiltrates to be emerging on the surface of absorbent article.
Cover layer 34 be arranged in layer of compensation 32 above.Cover layer 34 has an oval-shaped centre bore 36.
Cover layer 34 couples together at edge side by a hot-melt adhesive layer 38 each other with layer of compensation 32.So just can prevent that these two layers from sliding opposite to one anotherly.Cover layer is to make with a kind of composite material that is formed by cellulose and polypropylene.Polypropylene part weight in the mixture accounts for 60%.In addition, in cover layer, also filled one and middle titanium dioxide pigment.The punching press in tectal production process of the slotted eye 36 at center is come out.
